Not sure if this applies here, but I think the Python GC will not call
destructors on objects that are part of a reference cycle. So maybe the
Python wrappers get collected but not the C++ objects.

You can already see it in the original test I put up on my webserver.
But I updated it to make it more explicit:
http://molb.org/~jk/siptest2.tar.gz
The C++ objects have destructors that should print stuff, but that never
happens.
Another thing: it would be nice if sipKeepReference() would appear in the
docs.
